Bill > HB0176

This bill appropriates a modest sum of $2 from the General Revenue Fund (GRF) to the Office of the Secretary of State for its fiscal year 2026 ordinary and contingent expenses. The GRF is the state's primary operating fund used to support various government agencies and services. While the appropriation amount is unusually small, the bill specifies that the entire $2 or any portion thereof can be used to cover the specified expenses. The bill is set to become effective on July 1, 2025, which marks the start of the next fiscal year. This type of bill is a standard appropriations measure that provides funding for a specific government office's operational costs for a defined period.
